See final paragraph - set to be the tallest building in Western Canada. The article focuses on the 14 stories of underground parking that will be included, which does seem excessive given that the SkyTrain is literally across the street.

If you have mobility issues, why are you buying an apartment in a 50-storey building where, if there's ever an emergency requiring evacuation, you're super duper extra fucked?

It's not like 90% of Vancouver isn't already SFH. What a stupid argument.
